Cedric Watson & Bijoux Creole

 
One of the most noted young talents to emerge in Cajun or Creole music in the past few years, Cedric Watson is a fiddler, vocalist, accordionist and songwriter of seemingly unlimited potential. Cedric has been making a name for himself reviving old Creole fiddling styles, injecting a healthy dose of his own personality and ingenuity, and bringing them to an ever-broadening audience.

Cedric Watson has played with some of the great family names in Creole music, including Dexter Ardoin and the Creole Ramblers and Jeffrey Broussard and the Creole Cowboys, and most recently was a featured member of the Pine Leaf Boys. He has played across the United States as well as in France, Nova Scotia, Haiti and Spain, and he has a keen interest in connecting Louisiana Creole music to the Creole Nations in other parts of the world.

Moving with ease between fiddle and accordion, Cedric's creative style and obvious joy in playing make him an engaging and exciting performer.
